<p>Our session on cancellation didn't yield a finished story, but we did certainly learn a lot. Here's some <a href="https://github.com/rust-lang/wg-async-foundations/issues/65#issuecomment-816653757">cleaned up notes</a> on the GitHub issue. We can use this Zulip thread to coordinate turning those notes into actual stories.</p>

<p><span class="user-mention" data-user-id="224872">@rylev</span> Hi, did you get a chance to do more research on cancellations to progress with the story creation?</p>

<p>A little bit more, yes. If anything we'll start with the story about accidental cancellation</p>

<p>The <code>stop_token</code> crate mentions the use case of a chat server where the server wants to cancel the chat future only when a full message has been sent. We could use that as an example.</p>
